From Court to Chaos: John Amores' Shooting Saga Unfolds!

NorthPort's John Amores is back in the headlines for all the wrong reasons—alleged shooting incident in Laguna! 🤯🏀

In an astonishing turn of events, PBA player John Amores has found himself at the center of a shooting incident during what was supposed to be a fun post-game gathering after a basketball match in Laguna. The NorthPort guard allegedly chased and shot an individual named Lee Calcada around 6:10 PM on September 25, sparking a manhunt led by local police. Luckily, no one was reported injured in this shockingly reckless episode, but it does leave one questioning the choices athletes make when the game is done.

This isn't John Amores' first brush with trouble. Just two years ago, he made headlines for an infamous punching spree while playing in the NCAA. Fans were hoping he had laid low and focused on his game since then, but it seems that this basketball star just can’t shake the drama. Just like his rival players, who only throw shots at the basket, Amores has taken it a step further, now throwing shots in a whole different context!

Authorities are now delving into the details of the incident, with the Lumban Municipal Police stating that this event has triggered a full-scale investigation. Eyewitnesses are being interviewed, and evidence is being collected to understand the context of the altercation. John Amores' legal troubles are likely far from over, and it remains to be seen how the PBA will address this concerning behavior of one of its players.

As a pivotal member of a professional basketball team, Amores has the platform and influence to inspire many young athletes. Unfortunately, incidents like this one can give a tarnished image to the sport. On a brighter note, PBA fans can take solace in the fact that the league has implemented stricter regulations around player conduct in recent years.

Interestingly, basketball is not only a popular sport in the Philippines but it has deep cultural roots, often being a common ground for communities to bond. Additionally, while this unfortunate incident unfolds, let’s not forget, shooting hoops or shooting guns should never mix!
